We’ve worked with Cornelius and Keith on a number of projects; both in the field and online. They are always really quick to respond and set up new projects, and they took the headache out of research for us whilst delivering really meaningful results.

Ryan Grobler - Head of Mobile Development

We selected Cornelius as our survey partner and consultant since 1998 and we have relied on him and his team for all of our work in those areas ever since. We have an excellent working relationship, they work to a consistently high standard and are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure results and provide very good value.

Sandrine Cael-Ameura - Operations Director

I’ve worked with Rigour Research on numerous national and multi-market studies.  They are responsive at proposal stage, and able to present creative solutions for hard to reach audiences.  They have great attention to detail during scripting and field management and are willing to go the extra mile to complete a tricky project.
